No. I don't have kids.
But I was talking to a coworker who has four kids, the oldest of whom is 17. The coworker has just started dancing, as opposed to being a waitress, and she's trying to figure out a) how to hide it, and b) how to get her daughters to stop being so down on dancers.
Now, it's a small town, so I know that the oldest kid at least is going to find out. Unfortunately, the kid is down on dancers because of all the stereotypical bs. The kid knows that her mom waitresses at the club and is always asking her questions, like "mom, are the strippers really ditzy?" which the mom tries to parry as well as possible. The mom thinks that her daughter would be really judgemental about her dancing, so I was pointing out that she better start laying a more aggressive groundwork for dancers not necessarily fulfilling the stereotypes, because her kid IS going to find out soon.
So, two questions (and I'm asking because I'm not sure she can access the site on the home computer without the kids finding out):
1) how can she hide dancing? Specifically stuff like all the underwear, shoes, and money? I suggested a locked trunk in the trunk of her car, but if the kids are determined enough, that's not going to stop them.
and,
2)any suggestions for how to approach the subject of dancing and how to start changing how the daughter thinks about dancing?
thanks.
